  Hollywood What If Chapter 24

  "Hey, Carl! I heard a story."

  "Hm?"

  Carl Morin turned as he heard someone call his name. Carl Morin was a w under WMA (William Morris Agency). He had few ts, but eae had a good prospect, especially the director he had sig year.

  "Have you heard about the movie Se7en?"

  The agent approached him.

  "Yes. I heard about it. That movie is ing out this month, right?" Carl Morin was fused as to why his colleague was asking him about this particur movie.

  "Do you know the swriter of this movie?"

  "Sorry John, I'm too busy and haven't had time to read the neer or anything." He shook his head.

  "It's your ex-t! Kazir Grey! I only heard about it from my t because he is w with Kazir."

  "What!?"

  Carl Morin was shocked to hear this. He thought his colleague was joking.

  "Judging by your rea, you didn't really hear it. Anyway, I have a magazine here, there's an article about Se7en."

  The agent hahe magazio Carl Morin.

  "..."

  Carl didn't know what to say. He walked into a room shared by fents. A small agent like him had to share an office with ents, it was a normal thing.

  As Carl sat down in front of his desk, he opehe magazine and started to read the article about Se7en.

  "That's impossible. I know Kazir, he has no talent for writing a script!"

  Carl had been Kazir's agent for three years. When the traded, he didn't re. Because he felt that Kazir didn't have a good future as a director.

  In addition, Kazir Grey ahe top ma after actally spilling water on one of the WMA's vice presidents.

  "..."

  Carl touched his . Acc to the article, Se7en had a budget of 35 million dolrs. There was a ce that it would do well iheaters.

  "No, that kind of movie has a disadvantage. Se7en is probably an R-rated movie and families with children will never see this kind of movie"

  He thought.

  Carl Morin hoped that Se7en would flop at the box office. Otherwise, there was a good ce that he would regret his decision of letting Kazir go.

  "..."

  He was in a bad mood all the time when he realized that the egg he had dropped might have been a golden egg.

  "Wow! I didn't expect the movie premiere to be like this! Hey, look, it's Jennifer Aniston."

  "Yeah, Reese, I see her. You don't have to tell me right o my ear."

  It seemed that Jennifer Aniston and Brad Pitt had a good retionship even before they got married.

  "I 't help it! I 't believe I see them so close." She whispered.

  Reese Witherspoon and Kazir Grey attehe premiere of Se7en. They saw Man Freeman, Brad Pitt and Gwyh Paltrow walk down the red carpet one by ohey waved their hands to the crowd.

  They were dressed in formal attire. Each actor showed his or her appearao the public. Especially the actress, they posed well.

  Unfortunately, a swriter like Kazir didn't have a ce to walk on the red carpet. Unless he became famous.

  Well, I don't like being the ter of attention. I like making movies, but being in front of the public is the st thing I want in this job.

  After the actors ehe theater, the reception slowly quieted down.

  Kazir and Reese ehe theater through the back door and found their seats.

  "Hey, I heard that this movie didn't get a positive rea at the test sing. The audience didn't like the movie at all, I'm afraid Brad Pitt will have a problem starring in this kind of movie."

  Reese and Kazir overheard the versatioo them. Reese wao talk to the man, but Kazir stopped her by grabbing her hand.

  They might as well shut up and watch the movie instead.

  The movie started and everyone focused on the movie. The cssiew Line ema opening credits appeared.

  [Note: If you don't want to be spoiled, don't read the ones in parentheses. I watched Se7en few years ago. So I just rewatched the movie summary in YouTube when I was writing this. A bit with chatgpt as well, but AI clearly makes mistakes.]

  [The story begins with the introdu of Detective Somerset (Man Freeman). An experienced detective on the verge of retirement. Detective Somerset is a calm and reflective character who has seen it all. He has bee disillusioned with the world.]

  "So this is Man's role in this movie, as expected. He alys that kind of gentleman."

  Reese frowned as she tio hear the murmur o them.

  [Detective Somerset's rept is Detective Mills (Brad Pitt). A young and ambitious officer eager to make a name for himself iy. ]

  "Waahh! Brad! How handsome!"

  Reese and Kazir heard a squeal behind them.

  [Note: If you don't want to be spoiled, I reend you skip this part]

  [The two detectives are assigo work together on a case involving a gruesome murder. Which they soon discover is only the first in a series of murders].

  [The killer is targeting people who represent each of the seven deadly sins. Each murder se is eborately and twistedly staged.]

  "Gueh--!" A faint vomit es from an audience member as they see the first victim.

  [The detectives begin to uhe clues left by the killer. As they do, they bee increasingly horrified by the brutality and depravity of the crimes.]

  [The murders are particurly disturbing. Eae underscores the horrifiature of the sin beied.]

  [The first murder is that of an obese man who was force-fed until his stomach burst. This is followed by the murder of a greedy wyer who is forced to cut off a pound of his own flesh.]

  [ While the killing spree was going oive Somerset met Detective Mills' wife. Tracy (Gwyh Paltrow) told Detective Somerset that she regnant. She didn't know how to tell her husband.]

  [The third victim is a zy man who is tied to a bed for a year. The fourth victim is a man who was forced to kill a prostitute, representing the sin of lust. The fifth victim is a proud model who is disfigured with a knife and killed herself by overdosed.]

  [The detectives soon realize that the killer, who calls himself John Doe (Kevin Spacey), is making a statement about the sins of mankind].

  [Doe is an intelligent and calg individual who is pying a game with the detectives. He wants to show them the true nature of humanity and force them to face their own sins.]

  [Detective Mills and John Doe had a frontation in the alley. Detective Mills nearly lost his life. But the killer let him live.]

  The audience sighed with relief because they thought Brad Pitt was going to die just like that. In this kind of movie, usually one of the main characters has to die.

  [Wheive Mills survived the ordeal. He realized that the killer was actually the reporter who was harassing them!]

  The audience gasped as they realized the truth.

  The climax was near. The audience grew quiet as the movie drew to a close.

  [The detectives finally identified John Doe. But Doe surreo the detectives instead. There was blood on his clothes, indig that he had killed another person].

  "Is this the end of the movie?" Reese whispered o Kazir and he shook his head.

  Now that John Doe had surrendered, everyohought the movie was over.

  However, the final se was still to e. The "What's in the box?" se...
